If English is his first language, I'd say bot for sure, his spelling is off and the topics he's bringing up aren't exactly the first topics people bring up when meeting someone new. Try doing a reverse image search on his profile pic, see if it is actually him or if it comes up from someone else or a stock photo

He is deliberately ignoring my replies as if he is a bot or going off a script.

Yeah, bot

Or someone from overseas phishing

I think so too. And I am not in the mood to string him along. Too tired to deal with bs right now.

Also just my own personal observation but US guys of millennial age and up tend not to use emojis unless they're gay

Emojis in texts tend to be either women, LGBTQ+ folks, or bots

I didn't realize that, thank you!

it's a bot. the B8 oil field doesn't have anything to do with lukoil or chevron. it's owned and operated by lotos petrobaltic.

Bot or Nigerian 🤣🤣🤣

"I'm married"
"I'm single too"
..... wat?

Thank you everyone!

Oh man, I emoji all the time! And I’m an elder millennial!

But yeah, the dude sounds fishy at least. But I’m not sure of the context.

he just messaged me out of the blue on tik tok. so I said hi. That's pretty much the whole context of it all.

Reminds me of an article i was reading about how Chinese organized crime kidnap people and enslave them to phish on dating apps for married women to con out of their money. Apparently, married women are the least likely to report being scammed that way.

Gotcha. Well there is no money to be found here!

Because he randomly asks if you are married and launches into volunteering a lot of information that looks like the setup to a sad story

Although he isn’t trying to seduce you at least.

Thank goodness for that!

Nick I think you fall under the bot category

lmao

Touché lolol
